I drove through Chester frost a few times and will be staying there in a couple of weeks. I think it is a nice campground. Another option is Harrison Bay State Park. I have fished both Nickajack and Chickamauga. I think either is a good choice fishing wise. Fishing below Nickajack dam can be great. I find the traffic to be more of a pain coming from the Hale’s bar area into Chattanooga depending on the time of day. If there is a specific question I can answer send me a PM. I will try to help you if I can.
